[afterlife]

Just today my 93 Automatic VR6 Passat made a noise after a quick acceleration, It made a sudded "snap" noise from the engine.. it did not slow down or shift different but continued to make the noise every 10-15 seconds depending on how I would accelerate.
The snap is enough that I can feel it on the pedal.
I'm real worried at this point, since I've already spent $4000 in the last 6 months on a new Cam chain and numerous other things.
